6 out of 7 have it in my home. 7th may possibly have it but refuses testing.
I'd never heard of cd until our ped dx'd my middle child, then 9, with the disease. For 9 years we'd done elimination diets to figure out the cause of her stomach pains and constant diarrhea.
Other family symptoms: migraines, seizures, muscle/bone aches/pains, nerve issues (numbness, tingling), stomach upset, heartburn, night blindness, aggressive behavior, depression, attention span issues, memory loss.
Before "allowed" to go GF, my daughter had blood, stool, and endoscopy tests done. The last 4 females only had blood and endoscopy proof. My son has the cd gene--blood test only.
We were told not to go GF until the tests were completed or we would skew the results. My personal results were inconclusive though I have 2 genes and felt 100% better on the GF diet. With those 2 components I am gluten intollerant, not celiac.
Good luck!
